SAN DIEGO -- Madison Bumgarner and the major league-leading San Francisco Giants had a slow start to the second half.All-Star slugger Wil Myers hit his 20th home run and Adam Rosales also connected off Bumgarner, powering the San Diego Padres to a 4-1 victory Friday night against the Giants.Bumgarner (11-4), also an All-Star, didnt appear Tuesday in the Midsummer Classic at Petco Park because he pitched on Sunday, throwing a one-hitter and striking out 14 in a 4-0 victory over Arizona.This time, the tall lefty allowed four runs and seven hits in six innings. He struck out nine and walked one.We made a lot of good pitches for a lot of strikes, Bumgarner said. Some of them werent as good as I wanted and they put some good swings on them, but they were still decent pitches, a lot of them. It just didnt go our way tonight.Rosales homered off the side of the Western Metal Supply Co. brick warehouse in the left-field corner leading off the fourth, his sixth.Myers, eliminated in the first round of the All-Star Home Run Derby on Monday night, homered to right-center in the fifth.Bumgarner appeared to watch Myers as he circled the bases. Asked if he was upset with anything, the pitcher said: Oh, no. I was just watching it with him, thats all. I didnt have anything else to do at the time.Bumgarner just wasnt quite as sharp, Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. Weve gotten pretty spoiled with him. Six innings, four runs, thats an off night for him, obviously. A couple of balls left the ballpark. He just wasnt quite as sharp and they took advantage of it. Still, he keeps you in the game. We just couldnt do anything offensively.Andrew Cashner (4-7) won for the first time in four starts by holding the Giants to one run and four hits in six innings. He struck out nine and walked none.Brandon Maurer worked the ninth for his second save.Brandon Belt was ejected for arguing with umpire Mike Estabrook after striking out in the ninth, and Bochy also was tossed.Yangervis Solarte hit an RBI double in the first and Matt Kemp had an RBI single in the third for San Diego.Conor Gillaspie singled home the Giants run in the second.TRAINERS ROOMGiants: OF Hunter Pence, on the disabled list with a strained right hamstring, began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Sacramento. Bochy said hed like Pence to get at least 30 at-bats before rejoining the active roster.Padres: RHP Tyson Ross, who hasnt pitched since opening day due to inflammation in his right shoulder, will be set back two more weeks after spraining an ankle last week.UP NEXTGiants: RHP Jeff Samardzija (9-5, 3.91 ERA), who won his final start before the All-Star break, is scheduled to start the middle game of the series Saturday night.Padres: Rookie RHP Luis Perdomo (3-4, 7.48) will try to bounce back from a loss in his last start before the break.Site Asics France .C. -- Kemba Walker and the Charlotte Bobcats got off to a fast start, and the Sacramento Kings were never quite able to catch up. Site Asics Pas Cher . PAUL, Minn. http://www.franceasics.fr/ . The showiest items on Calgarys lot were forwards Mike Cammalleri and Lee Stempniak. Both will be unrestricted free agents this summer. Asics France Soldes .com) - The Montreal Canadiens embark on their first road trip of the season as they head out west to battle the Calgary Flames on Wednesday night. Vente Asics Pas Cher . With Parker having a quiet game for once, Nicolas Batum and Boris Diaw provided the scoring as France won its first major basketball title by beating Lithuania 80-66 on Sunday. It was a victory that ended a decade of frustration for Parker and a talented French generation, which lost the final against Spain two years ago and took bronze in 2005.MIAMI -- New Miami Dolphins coach Adam Gase likes to talk trash to his players, and the teams performance in recent years has provided plenty of fodder.Miamis most recent playoff victory is old enough to drive. The Dolphins havent had a winning season since Barack Obama became president. Last year they were outscored 139-65 by the rival Buffalo Bills and New York Jets.And they keep getting coaches fired, which is why Miami is one of six NFL clubs with a new boss. The other teams are ripe targets for insult, too, thanks to hard times.Hired to lead turnarounds:- Gase, who won praise for his work with Jay Cutler, Peyton Manning and even Tim Tebow, and is now the NFLs youngest head coach at 38;- Ben McAdoo, 39, another young former offensive coordinator who was promoted by the New York Giants when Tom Coughlin departed after 12 seasons and two Super Bowl titles;- Dirk Koetter, promoted from offensive coordinator by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers when they switched their fourth coach since 2011;- Hue Jackson, a former Oakland Raiders head coach given a second shot by the Cleveland Browns;- Chip Kelly, hired by the San Francisco 49ers two weeks after he was fired at the end of his third season as coach of the Philadelphia Eagles;- Doug Pederson, a former NFL quarterback hired by the Eagles after Kellys departure.In addition, Mike Mularkey was promoted to Tennessee Titans head coach from the interim job.All of the new head coaches have offensive backgrounds with mandates to score more for teams that finished below .500 last season.The Dolphins havent won a playoff game since 2000, havent had a winning season since 2008 and went 6-10 in 2015. Gase is Miamis ninth head coach since 2004, and his brash, mouthy energy has been embraced by players as a welcome change from staid predecessor Joe Philbin.Gase will talk trash with anyone on the roster, even quarterback Ryan Tannehill, believing it makes practices go faster and gives the workouts an extra edge.When you have that kind of atmosphere, you love being out there, you love competing, he said.Asked if that sort of intensity is easier for a younger coach, Gase shrugged.I dont know, he said. Ive never been old yet.Its the same for McAdoo, whos a generation removed from his 70-year-old predecessor, Coughlin.McAdoo has added more music at practice and made changes to the coaching staff, including the hiring of a new strength and conditioning coach in an attempt to reduce injuries, which contributed to last seasons 6-10 record.One thing McAdoo did not change were the clocks in the team complex. They still run five minutes fast, something Coughlin startedd.ddddddddddddThe Bucs also went 6-10 last season and havent made the playoffs since 2007, but hope to continue offensive improvement that began last season under coordinator Koetter. With rookie Jameis Winston taking every snap, Tampa Bay finished fifth in the league in total yards.Now Koetter has to worry about the defense, too.I love offensive football, so its hard for me to separate, he said, but my role definitely changed, and Im learning as I go.Its no longer all offense for Pederson, either. He was an NFL quarterback for 10 seasons, including in Philadelphia, and rejoined the Eagles after three years as offensive coordinator of the Kansas City Chiefs.Pederson takes over a team that went 7-9 last season. He had a 3-14 record as a starting quarterback, but sees his playing career as an asset in the new job.Being a former quarterback, kind of the leader of your football team, youre in front of the media quite often, he said. Youre the voice of the team.Kelly and Jackson can draw on previous head coaching experience. Kelly had rocky relationships with some players in Philadelphia, but said the move to San Francisco hasnt changed him.The ocean is on the other side, Kelly said. So if I was facing north in Philly, the ocean is on the right. Now the ocean is on the left. I dont feel like Im different.The 49ers slipped to 5-11 in 2015, but are only three years removed from a 14-win season. Jackson, by contrast, is the Browns sixth coach in nine years, taking over a team that went 3-13 last season and hasnt been to the playoffs since 2002.Jackson finished 8-8 with the Raiders in 2011, his only previous season as a head coach. He said hell be a calmer coach this time.I understand that youre not going to win them all, and youre not going to lose them all, but somewhere in the middle, Jackson said. Hopefully you win more than you lose.Actually, none of the new coaches is projected to finish above .500 this season, and McAdoo could have been speaking for all of them at his introductory news conference in January.This job, he said, is not for the faint of heart.---AP Sports Writers Tom Canavan in East Rutherford, New Jersey; Fred Goodall in Tampa, Florida; Rob Maaddi in Philadelphia; Janie McCauley in San Francisco; and Tom Withers in Cleveland contributed to this report.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Steven Wine on Twitter: http://twitter.com/Steve-Wine.
